A lot from that area came to Hillsbrough Co. Plant City, and Tampa area. I am looking for Claude Bass (1880's) who married Darkis Williams (1890) daughter of George W. Williams and Nancy Johanna Blanton from Mad. and Tay. counties. They had a son Grover Cecil. Claude died about 1913 and she remarried a Fulford. Good Luck, Gloria
